Non-perturbative corrections to the Casimir energy for a scalar field theory with non-linear boundary conditions
Fabrizio Canfora, David Dudal, Thomas Oosthuyse +3
We consider the case of a free real massive bulk scalar in D=4 dimensions, and embed two parallel plates as interfaces on which we impose non-linear boundary conditions, either Dir…
The Equivalence Theorem at work: manifestly gauge-invariant Abelian Higgs model physics
Bram Boeykens, David Dudal, Thomas Oosthuyse
We reconsider the Equivalence Theorem from an algebraic viewpoint, using an extended BRST symmetry. This version of the Equivalence Theorem is then used to reexpress the Abelian Hi…
Dynamical edge modes in Maxwell theory from a BRST perspective, with an application to the Casimir energy
Fabrizio Canfora, David Dudal, Thomas Oosthuyse +2
Recently, dynamical edge modes (DEM) in Maxwell theory have been constructed using a specific local boundary condition on the horizon. We discuss how to enforce this boundary condi…
Scalar field theory under Robin boundary conditions: two-point function and energy-momentum tensor
David Dudal, Aaron Gobeyn, Bruno W. Mintz +2
We reconsider four-dimensional scalar field theory in presence of Robin boundary conditions on two parallel plates. These boundary conditions are directly imposed in the path integ…
The Casimir energy with perfect electromagnetic boundary conditions and duality: a field-theoretic approach
David Dudal, Aaron Gobeyn, Thomas Oosthuyse +2
Using functional integral methods, we study the Casimir effect for the case of two infinite parallel plates in the QED vacuum, with (different) perfect electromagnetic boundary con…
Interplay between chiral media and perfect electromagnetic conductor plates: repulsive vs. attractive Casimir force transitions
Thomas Oosthuyse, David Dudal
We determine the Casimir energies and forces in a variety of potentially experimentally viable setups, consisting of parallel plates made of perfect electromagnetic conductors (PEM…
The Casimir effect in chiral media using path integral techniques
Fabrizio Canfora, David Dudal, Thomas Oosthuyse +2
We employ path integral methods to calculate the Casimir energy and force densities in a chiral extension of QED. Manifestly gauge invariant perfect electromagnetic boundary condit…
